National Progression Award (NPA) : Playwork and Childcare

This qualification is ideal for a wide range of candidates eg S5 & S6 students, school leavers, adults returning to education, unemployed & employed candidates wishing to enhance their career prospects, workers with no recognised qualifications and also provides a stepping stone towards the level 3 practitioners award.

The NPC is recognised by the Scottish Social Services Council (SSSC) as a qualification appropriate for a support worker in most childcare and out of school settings.
